Verse 1:

   Am
At life's four-way stop

The tinges in your shadow drop
               F
Fate pulls you down for the count
            E7
With broken promises to amount

Am
Time seal our ways

To the heart of our hiding place
             F
When all our lifelines have been crossed
     E7                                F#m    E  F#m
Some scars can never heal from what we lost

F#m      E   F#m

Am  C#m  G   G#m



Chorus:

Bm          G#m                 G
To fail the test and depart the strong

Is to light the way where you have gone
Bm           G#m         G
For only our funerals to come
                                 
A requiem in death, a song

Bm    D#m    Cm

Verse 2:

       Am
And it seems to be
                             F
That consistency is not what lingers ahead
      E7
But a virtue of the dead

Am
One of these days

Hours pass yet the night stays
          F
When your spirit won't turn anew
    E7                                   Am
The world shuts down with no goodbye to undo you
